I never meant that - I was just countering the claim that "named
forks" are useless. And I only used Vim as an example of where Vim
would have been simpler to implement - on an operating system which
properly supports "type attributes".

Sad that everybody else only sees only hurdles and risks of change and
not the chances and the risk of no-change.

And yes: there is a rist of no-change!

The risk of an ever more complex software world with ever more complex
solutions which could be done much easier if one would have done it
right from the beginning.

And the risk of ever more exploits of those complex solutions.
